Chapter 4: A Born Child
The day after I arrived home, my family received a box of express delivery from Zhanjiang.
My mother said that she told several relatives in Zhanjiang the news of her second uncle's death. One of the relatives said that the second uncle still had a lot of relics in the Tiandao Hall in Zhanjiang and asked my mother what to do with it. My mom asked him to send the commemorative things and throw the rest away.
No, that relative sent the second uncle's relics over.
In the box was a gossip inkstone, a small box of cinnabar, a dagger more than ten centimeters long and a diary.
I took out my journal and sat down to look through it. A few of these entries caught my attention in particular.
December 3, 1989, heavy rain.
Tong Man filed for divorce. I didn't keep it. One is because I have too little time to take care of her; Second, because I offended a Taoist master, he gambled that he would entangle me for the rest of his life. Brought disaster to my whole family. It's okay if Man is gone.
April 23, 1994, fine.
I have almost lost my life at the hands of my enemies several times. My eldest brother negotiated with him for me, but unexpectedly killed him.
April 24, 1994, fine.
The eldest brother insisted on turning himself in, but was killed in a car accident on the way. I really don't know how to face my sister-in-law and Zhong Ming in the future.
……
Dad killed someone who wanted to put his second uncle to death? No wonder the second uncle said that although my dad killed someone by mistake, he couldn't blame him. Thinking about it this way, maybe my dad really wasn't a bad person. I was a little relieved and continued to flip back into the diary.
July 12, 2003, cloudy.
A friend invited to a 100-day wine banquet. When I arrived, I realized that the child's parents and family did not know about it, and I was not welcome to come. That's not all, I found out that the kid was a natural prodigy.
When a child is seven years old, his spiritual roots are formed, and he will definitely provoke many lonely souls and wild ghosts. If the child learns the Tao from me, he will be able to control his aura at the age of seven, prevent it from leaking, and avoid a catastrophe. It's a pity that the child's parents resisted.
This child is not a mortal, if he does not practice Taoism and does not learn the method of controlling his aura, he will be infested by a hundred ghosts for the rest of his life. If you want to resolve it, you can only use the three obscure water to destroy his spiritual root and make him an ordinary person. But that's a shame. With this child's qualifications, it is entirely possible to become a contemporary Zhang Sanfeng.
I hope that when he is seven years old, I will help him ward off evil spirits in front of his parents, and they will be able to let their children worship me.
Isn't this diary written about Chen Youbo's child? Isn't the child's doom just beginning?
On the first seven days of the second uncle, Chen Youbo suddenly called me and said that his son's behavior was very strange, and his mother and grandfather were frightened, and wanted to ask me to go to Guangzhou again immediately (they thought that the child was not in good health and should not travel tiringly, so they did not return to Zhanjiang and stayed at a friend's house in Guangzhou temporarily).
I said I really can't leave today, you take care of the children first, and I'll go over early tomorrow morning. Although Chen Youbo was in a hurry, he couldn't help it.
At night, I lit a tower incense stick in front of my second uncle's spirit and asked my mother to go to sleep first. Mom reminded me that the incense can't be broken when I wake the spirit, otherwise the second uncle will not be able to find the way back. I said I know, I'll pay attention.
It was about twelve o'clock when there was a sudden rustling sound in front of the spirit. I took a photo of the Heavenly Dao Seal and saw the second uncle standing in front of the spirit in shackles. The shackles were attached to long chains. Holding the chains are two yincha.
I hurriedly stepped forward to reason with Yin Cha and said, "Why are you doing this to my second uncle? ”
Yin said impatiently, "We don't have time to target anyone. This is the treatment of every resurrected Yin Spirit. You have fifteen minutes, so if you have anything to say, hurry up and say it! With that, he stood aside with his hands behind his back.
My second uncle and I held hands and looked at each other with tears in our eyes, and I didn't know what to say for a while. I asked the second uncle if he had met my dad down there. He said no. He searched the underworld but didn't see any trace of my father. After finishing it, he smiled again, and said that the population problem below is even more serious than that of Yangshi, and it has only been seven days, and it is not unusual for the two brothers to not meet at all.
I suddenly remembered the contents of his diary and asked him what the three obscure waters were.
The second uncle said: "The so-called three obscure water is the rain of the obscure day plus the pomelo leaf water boiled by the new leaves picked from the pomelo tree planted in the obscure day, plus the saliva of a woman under the age of 18 who died in the obscure day. ”
"Saying" said: obscure, the moon is over. The obscure day refers to the last day of the month in the lunar calendar. What does this do, you ask?
I told Chen Youbo about coming to the door. The second uncle suddenly became excited and said, "You must convince the child's parents to let him learn the Tao!" That kid is a rare Taoist genius in a hundred years! ”
I can only say that I tried my best, after all, Taoism is decaying in this era, how many people would be willing to let their children become Taoist priests?
Yin Cha tugged on a chain and said, "It's time, let's go!" ”
The second uncle smiled sadly and asked me to be filial to my mother, to take good care of myself, and to carry forward the Heavenly Dao Sect. I kept nodding my head, tears streaming down my face.
Early the next morning, I went to Guangzhou again.
As soon as Chen 13 saw me, he pulled me to the child, and said with a handful of snot and tears: "Chief Zhong Dao, look at why this child is like this." ”
It's okay if I don't look at it, but I'm shocked when I see it. The child was as white as a paper man, and he was squatting in the corner of the room eating candles!
I said, "Why are you letting him eat this?" ”
Chen Youbo's wife cried early and said, "We don't want to." On the night you drove the hanged man away, the child cried and said he was hungry, and we prepared for him his favorite meal, but he refused to eat a single bite, but asked us to find candles and sandalwood for him to eat. ”
Chen Youbo continued: "Of course we don't. Unexpectedly, the child began to bite his fingers and eat. Chief Chungdo, look at it, look at it! He picked the child out of the corner.
I saw that all ten of the child's fingers were bloody, and several of them were already able to see bones. Chen Youbo said that they bandaged the child many times, but each time he took advantage of their inattention to tear off the bandage and continue to bite.
Chen Youbo and they really had no choice but to buy candles for him.
I took a picture of the Heavenly Dao Seal and saw two ghosts on the child's body, one old and one young. They fight for each other, they don't want to leave the child's body, they all compete to eat candles.
I asked Chen Youbo and the three of them to go out first, firstly because I learned the lesson of the last time, and secondly, to make it easier for me to read "Heavenly Dao Atlas". As the saying goes, wealth is not exposed. Of course, babies should not be exposed. It's not that I don't trust the Chen family, it's just that I have always taken the phrase "you can't have the heart to harm others, and you can't have the heart to prevent people" as the golden rule.
Both of these ghosts are characterless. The first chapter of the "Heavenly Dao Atlas" records them.
Geist Chapter.
The souls that die without entering the underworld and wander in the world without purpose are collectively referred to as wandering souls.
You can use the prince's tips with the exorcism spell to drive it away.
It's the same way to deal with the Hanged Ghost.
I pinched the prince's fingers and recited the exorcism spell loudly, and the two spirits came out of the child's body at once. The child immediately threw the candle from his hand and retched.
The two spirits wandered aside, reluctant to leave.
I threw away the Heavenly Dao Seal and said, "Do you know what this is?" "Last time, I succeeded in scaring away the hanged ghosts, but this time I have a lot more confidence.
The two spirits immediately knelt down and cried and begged the Taoist to spare their lives! The Taoist chief spares his life!
I said, "I don't want to embarrass you, you should report to the underworld quickly, and stop pestering this child!" ”
The geist said, "Yes! Yes, sir! Let's go! ”
I suddenly remembered something and said, "Wait! I'm going to ask you a couple of questions. After I drove away the hanged ghost last time, the black aura on this child's forehead has not dissipated, could it be that you were already on the child at that time? If that's the case, why didn't the Heavenly Dao Seal take you out last time? ”
The old geist said that they were indeed in the body at that time. That day, they were wandering in the streets, and suddenly they saw such a child full of aura and rushed to his body to suck his aura. Later, the hanged ghost also came.
The Wandering Spirit said that they didn't know why the Heavenly Dao Seal hadn't shown them in the first place. Maybe it's because the Yin Qi of the Hanged Ghost is heavier than them, and the strength is stronger than theirs. If I take a picture of the children after I've driven them out, I'll probably be able to take them out.
I'm called a Khan, and my heart tells us this story...... Exorcism is the same as doing math problems, and you must check it after you complete it.
I waved my hand and said, "No problem, let's go." "The two wandering spirits are like amnesty, and they quickly slip away.
That's when I opened the door and let the Chen family in.
I said, "Hurry up and send the child to the hospital, you should bandage it, and you should wash the stomach and wash the stomach!" ”
Chen Shisan hugged the child distressedly and said, "What kind of sin did our Chen family do in our previous life, the child has to suffer so much at a young age. ”
I said, "I see that you have not only not created evil in your previous life, but have accumulated a lot of virtue. The three of them immediately looked at me with a look that wanted to beat me. I smiled and said, "You also looked at my second uncle with this kind of eyes back then, right?" ”
They were so embarrassed that the child's mother said, "I, let's take the child to the hospital first." Chen 13 followed her away. Chen Youbo has always been calmer and said, "Why did Zhong Daochang say that? ”
I said, "Your son was born a monastic wizard. In the words of my second uncle, with your son's qualifications, he is fully capable of becoming a modern Zhang Sanfeng. If it weren't for the accumulation of virtue in his previous life, how could he have such a good foundation? ”
Chen Youbo was puzzled and said, "In this case, why is he always haunted by ghosts?" ”
I said, "That's why he's haunted." "I told him everything I read in my second uncle's diary. I said, "I don't have the ability to accept disciples, so why don't you go and find someone who thinks you have attained the Tao, and let the child worship under his door." ”
Chen Youbo was silent for a long time and asked me what the three obscure waters were.
I said, "You want to destroy the child's spiritual roots?" Do you want to talk to your child? Maybe he likes to be a Taoist priest himself? ”
Chen Youbo said: "What does the child know? As parents, we do not expect our children to be rich and rich, let alone to become Buddhas and immortals, but only hope that our children will grow up healthily, suffer less hardships in the future, and bear less strange eyes from others. If you let the child become a Taoist, no matter if he can become a modern Zhang Sanfeng or a reincarnated Lu Dongbin, he is just a Taoist priest after all, and he will always be just a god stick in the eyes of the world! ”
After he finished his impassioned statement, he suddenly remembered that the person standing in front of him was a Taoist priest, and stammered: "Daoist Zhong, I didn't mean that you are a god stick...... It's just ......"
I smiled and said, "I understand." It's your right to do what you want. But I still want to say that no matter what kind of talent is worth cherishing. Your decision is naturally made for the good of your child, but how do you know that the result is what your child wants? And how do you know that the consequences of your decision will objectively be good for your child? ”
Children are independent individuals, not appendages of anyone, and I believe that any decision about a child should respect the child's wishes.
I told him the recipe for the three obscure waters, and said that you should think it through yourself.
